Non-Consensual Sex and Risk of Depression in Female Undergraduates at Universities in Maritime Canada
(2014-08-28)Sexual victimization and depression are common among female undergraduate students. There is little research on the prevalence of and relationship between victimization and depression in the context of Canadian undergraduate ... -
Non-Cooperative Vessel Detection Using Multispectral Satellite Imaging and Machine Learning Applied Towards Onboard Satellite Dark Vessel Detection
(2024-04-30)Dark vessels are a major source of economic and environmental damage, estimated to cost the global economy tens of billions (USD) a year. These vessels hide or obscure their presence on the ocean to conduct unlawful ... -
Non-Coplanar Arc Optimization for Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy Treatment Planning
(2023-08-29)Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is a technique that delivers a high dose of radiation in a single or small number of fractions and requires rapid fall off outside the target. In current clinical practice it is ... -
Non-Destructive Characterization of Degradation and Drug Release Processes in Calcium Polyphosphate Bioceramics Using MRI
(2010-12-21)A modern approach to the treatment of localized disease involves the use of advanced polymeric or ceramic implant materials for controlled-rate drug delivery. These implants are dynamic systems that maintain drug concentrations ... -
NON-DIRECTIONAL, SYMBOLIC CUES IN A GO BEFORE YOU KNOW TASK
(2020-04-13)Inhibition of Return (IOR) has been observed in reaching movements to a known target location following predictive symbolic cues. Facilitatory like effects, as they appear in traditional cue-target paradigms, have not yet ... -
NON-EFFECTIVE ORBIFOLDS AND DOUBLE CATEGORIES
(2017-08-31)Satake introduced Orbifolds in terms of an underlying space with an atlas of charts consisting of an open subset of Euclidean space with an action of a finite group. The representation of orbifolds by topological groupoids ... -
Non-Euclidean Eye Problems in the Geometry Lesson of Finnegans Wake
(2015)I demonstrate the existence of a correlation between references to physicists and references to eye problems in the geometry lesson in Book II, Chapter 2 of James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake. Specifically, the sequence of ... -
Non-Linear Coupling of Scales of Ocean Variability and Implications for Downscaling
(2015)The objectives of this study are to develop better methods for dynamically downscaling ocean conditions, and to improve understanding of the physical processes controlling variations on regional scales. Motivated by the ... -
